The project team will ramp up from Q4 2016 and the facility is projected to start up by 2019. A recently published article about the project refers to an estimated 2,000 persons to be employed during the construction phase as well as 200 permanent jobs being created upon operation, paying approximately US$11.6m per year.

Particularly in today’s market, such a high profile project is a both great gift to the region as well as great opportunity for all the loyal engineers, supervisors and inspectors that have supported Brunel throughout the years‘, says Andre Harden – Brunel’s Account Manager on this project.
